Legacies: Charles Michael Davis and Nathaniel Buzolic to Appear as Marcel and Kol in Season 4 Episode
More familiar faces are returning to Mystic Falls this spring.
Legacies‘ April 14 episode (The CW, 9/8c) will welcome Originals stars Nathaniel Buzolic (aka Kol Mikaelson) and Charles Michael Davis (aka Marcel Gerard) for the first time. They’ll be joined by Claire Holt (Rebekah Mikaelson) and Riley Voelkel (Freya Mikaelson), both of whom have guest-starred previously.
“The Mikaelson family is welcome to visit anytime, always and forever,” showrunner Brett Matthews recently told TVLine. “It is a joy to revisit these characters and the talent who plays them. COVID makes this hard, scheduling makes this hard, and they’re all so gifted — they’re very busy. But if they can’t travel in from New Orleans, we may just have to go to them.”
So, what brings this foursome to Legacies? Here’s the official logline for the episode, titled “Everything That Can Be Lost May Also Be Found,” which may hold the answer: “Hope continues to be swirled in confusion and fighting her humanity, which results in her seeing the people who mean the most to her: Rebekah, Marcel, Kol and Freya.” Well, there you go!
Elsewhere in the hour, “Kaleb wants to introduce Cleo to his world, including those who had the most profound influence on his path. Meanwhile, Lizzie devises a plan to get in someone’s good graces.”
Additional actors from The Vampire Diaries and The Originals who have returned for Legacies include Zach Roerig (Matt), Jodi-Lyn O’Keefe (Jo), Chris Wood (Kai) and Rebecca Breeds (Aurora). Candice King (Caroline) also recorded new audio for an episode. You can see a full breakdown of actors who have crossed between shows in this list.
Are you excited to see these Originals characters back in Hope’s orbit? Drop a comment with your thoughts below.
Hoping at least one of them actually shows up in person, rather than as a hallucination.
Would be a fun surprise twist.
I think Ric at least deserves a call from Damon when he’s back and things calm down…they’re best friends for crying out loud! So excited for the guest stars, this season has been fun! Please renew for season 5 CW =)
His daughter was living with him and Elena, when she went to mystic falls high school too.
The problem, I think, is with the actors. They may not want to appear.
Thank You!!! It’s about
@&π×¢€£ time that you are getting some of Hope’s family back on camera again! You know when someone goes off to a school in another state or even another Country, it doesn’t mean that there family just disappear!! Especially one as close as Hope & her family were!! They write, they visit, they call! It’s not like you NEVER see them again!! C’mon
All 4 of them?????? It’s happening. Hope’s humanity has been off longer than anybody right?
Caroline went a pretty long time,Elena too I think.
Original reunion!!!!!
This is great news! Now, all that has to happen is the announcement of a fifth season renewal. Make it happen CW!!!
Yes please a Season 5 renewal !!! Its so unfortunate that the show took so long to get to this point.
This show is killing it this season, now this casting *chefs kiss*
I really hope the CW hurries up and renews this show soon…..which just enforces how weird the impending sale in fact is, as they usually renew basically everything. Pedowitz has a good track record compared to the previous CEO when it comes to giving shows a proper ending, I hope that doesn’t change.
Legacies is one of 4 shows yet to be renewed that are veteran shows (3+ seasons)… and 2 of them have already finished airing their seasons without renewal. When is the last time that has happened on the CW? (Yes, slight tangent I went off on there)
Ooh … The man candy is returning.
Big daddy getting horny? Pull the pants up!
Just a tidbit of info, the article says the April 15th episode. That’s a Friday, shouldn’t it say April 14th?
Correct, it’s the 14th. This is what happens when I get too excited.
It happens.
I’m so excited I could just spit and dance in the streets!
Woohoo! I’ve been waiting for this since season 1!
This is amazing wish more original faces can be introduce to legacies.
Didn’t figure there was any other reason Nate was in Atlanta…..
kol!!!!!!!!!!
Heck yes!!!! More often too
As long as we get answer to whether Rebekah and Marcel tied not. I don’t think she was wearing a ring last time. I will be deeply upset if they broke these two up again.
hopefully her seeing the family is not a hallucination cause it makes zero sense lately none of them are at the school trying to help their niece and in marcels case his stepsister, it feels insulting to the history, if elijah, klaus and hayley knew they were just leaving her alone they would be furious. I understand there are real world reasons why they arent around as much but in the context of the show we arent given reason to why they never seem to show up. I can kind of work around people like damon and elena not showing up at salvatore school but it makes no sense the mikaelsons are never around, yeah freya was around but in a forced way and rebekah was around but her scenes didnt add up to much.
I also dont think its a hallucination based on the fact she was never super close to these 4 except for freya, she was mostly close to klaus, hayley, freya, keelin and even vincent, davina and declan more than marcel, kol and rebekah.
If you think about it hope lived with Rebekah as a way to stay hidden up until her teen years then she went to the Salvatore School
she only stayed with her as a baby, that dont count
Since it was astroprojection that brought then all together I would have loved to have seen a different 4….Reebekah, Haley, Elijah with Hope at the dinner table and in walks Klaus from behind her saying hello Little one.
I think they are all 4 showing up to try and get Hope to turn her humanity back on!
sure it could work
Looking forward to this. – Still want to see Valerie for Lizzie’s sake.
not sure what valerie can add at this point
…How did Nate Buzz even get asked back? Like they must know what kind of person he is, right?
what kind of person he is?, wtf does that mean
His Instagram is filled with hate speech; ranging from Islamophobia (To quote Nate; “you aren’t being your true Christian self if you’re not Islamphobic” to telling young women that getting an abortion is the wrong thing to do, even if their pregnancy is the result of sexual assault. There was also a post about George Floyd, where he said something along the lines of if the officer who killed him followed God, then Floyd would still be alive.
If I also remember correctly, his attitude towards Danielle Campbell was a little sketchy as well.
Also, according to Nate; being sexually assaulted is a blessing if it results in a pregnancy.
that is a can of worms Im not even going to touch upon but yeah he shouldnt be spewing hate on his social media, it just makes people not want him back not cause they hate kol but cause its like why is this man having a job?
Yeah, that kinda makes me wonder about how the cast gets along with Matt Davis/Alaric who is very outspoken about ultra conservative views in regards to the LGBTQ community, as well as comments made about liberals/liberal causes. I’m curious if that may have had anything to do with Kaylee Bryant’s departure. I’ve worked in politically charged environments, and it isn’t fun. AT. ALL.
People have a right to speak and have an opinion in America! Oh yeah I forgot they took that privilege away from white people and straight people
i see, I didnt know these things.
Some of the other cast though are a bit sketchy as well though lets be honest. Past and present tvd alumni, I dont hear as much outcry for them to be removed except matt davis.
I guess we just have to try to seperate actor from character.
I get trying to seperate the actor from the characters, but I just can’t look at him the same way anymore (and this is coming from someone who loved Kol and Nate Buzz when he first appeared).
it will probably be a one and done anyway
tbh the way kol is returning im not a fan of it, my dream scenario since the introduction of these monsters and other ancient beings was to have a history of sorts with the originals but they didnt do that so Im both looking forward and not looking forward to this episode.
I am excited to hear about Kole Mikaelson and Marcel Gerar to be honest I think they need to make their characters permanent in the show I definitely can’t wait to watch on April 14th I’m really excited to see where this is going to go please give Nathaniel a contract to play in Legacies
Yes im ready to see more original cast miss them all specially Klaus
I will always have faith in my mind that joseph could change his mind but for the time being he has made it clear he never wants to play klaus again, something clearly put him off the role.
I love when previous characters return, if only a short period. I would LOVE to see Damon or Elena and them have a full and happy life!
This is probably wishful thinking but Id love it very much if we can get a scene between mikaelson family and bens family aka the gods, that be epic.
Cause think of it, there has never been up to this point a family powerful enough to stand toe to toe with the mikaelsons, families like the salvatores, new orleans families, mullers and de martels got lucky with whatever wins they got on the mikaelsons but they never could truly go mano e mano and win but now we have that.
I thought Rebekah was waiting for a cure in mystic falls.whats next for them?
So apart from everyone that has already crossed over, these few can still possibly appear: Davina , Damon, Elena , Bonnie , Caroline, Stephanie Salvatore, Keelin, Keelin and Freyas kid and Vincent. Maybe I missed a few people. Let’s just hope for the best even though many of these past actors are not interested in returning.
New Klaus and Hayley
Yes very excited they should be on way more often. I truly miss them and the shows. Klaus and Elijah could show up in some manner
